Benefit of Our CommunityWheeling is directly on the beautiful Ohio River between Ohio and Pennsylvania. Interstate 70 E/W passes through the heart of Wheeling, West Virginia.

The benefit of working with a local realtor is that we know the area. We know the schools and the area. Since Wheeling homes are mainly older, we as local realtors can tell the unique stories of the houses. We can point out the amenities that they can walk to from the houses, the historic significance of the house, and the area history. Also, we can offer guidance to our local banks who work well with our unique houses.

Our CommunityWheeling is located along the Ohio River in the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia with a population of around 29,000.
